Product Details
Description
A superb example of McIntosh’s renowned mid-century craftsmanship and design, this teak metamorphic nest of tables combines quality, versatility and timeless style in one elegant piece. Highly regarded by collectors and design enthusiasts alike, McIntosh furniture is celebrated for its refined detailing, excellent construction and enduring appeal.
This clever design offers three tables within a compact footprint. The main table top rotates and folds over to double its size for entertaining, or folds back neatly against a wall when not in use. Beneath, two smaller tables are suspended — perfect as extra sofa tables for drinks and nibbles. The main table sits on smooth-running castors for easy movement and features a distinctive brass hinge detail when fully opened.
This set has had one careful owner from new and retains its original McIntosh label on the inside of the frame, adding authenticity and provenance.
Approximate Measurements
Main table (folded):
• Height: 60 cm
• Width: 75 cm
• Depth: 41 cm
Main table (fully opened):
• Height: 58 cm
• Width: 82 cm
• Depth: 75 cm
Small tables (each):
• Height: 48 cm
• Width: 34 cm
• Depth: 36 cm
Specific Condition
This set is in good vintage condition, with a clean and beautifully polished teak finish that highlights the warm, rich grain. There are a few small dints and surface marks consistent with age and careful use (see photos).
The central wooden slide-in runner that holds one of the small tables has some damage, but the table still slots and holds securely. The small tables also do not hang completely straight within the frame and sit at a slight angle, as shown in the photographs — this does not affect use but is noted for accuracy.
A highly collectible and beautifully made piece of British mid-century furniture, offering both elegance and everyday practicality — ideal for modern interiors where flexibility, style and craftsmanship matter.

Additional Delivery Info from Seller
Safely delivering items you purchase in a timely fashion is both our priority and also one of the most challenging aspects of our business.
Where possible, we would prefer to hand-deliver, either by ourselves or via our dedicated courier. This ensures that your purchases arrive in exactly the condition they were in when you purchased them, as accurately described on our site. Grouping these deliveries together, which both saves you cost and also benefits the environment, you should expect delivery to be within 1 to 3 weeks of you placing the order. We will contact you directly with a firm delivery date and advise you in advance of a two-hour delivery window.
Our minimum packaging and delivery cost is £30; larger, heavier, items are likely to be significantly more expensive. For multiple purchases, we will happily discount.
We are able to package and export items beyond mainland UK and have done so as far afield as Hong Kong and New Zealand. Please contact us directly for a tailored quotation.
When ordering please advise if there are any delivery restrictions that will apply.
Please note that if we are unable to deliver on a pre-arranged day, you will be charged the full delivery fee for re-delivery.
